“Beakers are usually made in three parts, the sides being made from sheet which is hammered into the round and then seamed vertically, the base and foot wire applied separately.  The form of the beaker varies very little from the 17^th to the 19^th centuries….Beakers are comparatively rare from this (Queen Anne) period.”
